Ok, that brings me back to my initial question. You mentioned (I think it was you) your BMV also accounts for amperage provided by your alternator when the engine is running. I assumed that this was because the shunt is tied to the starter battery. Looks like another misassumption. Do you know what route your BMV is picking up your alternator amperage? Once again, I thought this was through the starter battery. Def green at this stuff, but getting better, painfully.
Welcome. Just hook it up and test. You will probably be surprised and off onto the next task.U that man! Thanks Paul! Believe it or not I have the BT dongle as well. Works wonderfully, just couldn’t figure out why my BMV wasn’t picking up the alternator AMPs when engine is running. Hopefully when I connect the shunt to negative on house battery all will be good. Thx again!
Paul, what sort of amperage are you receiving back into your bank while driving, on average?
So 85% discharge tells me you have Li batteries if your taking them down to to 15% SOC?! see I’m learning
Hey Paul I was just thinking about what you mentioned regarding having one shunt per battery back. Looking over the diagram I sent it shows both the starter and the house battery negative leads going to the shunt? Any idea what’s up with that?
